Financial Literacy: The Relationship to Saving Behavior in Low‐ to Moderate‐income Households
This study was designed to explore financial literacy in low‐ to moderate‐income households with regard to saving behavior.

This study investigated the impact of investments in human capital on the economic well-being of black and white women immediately following marital disruption. It also explored the extent to which the observed differences in income between the two groups were due to differences in the levels of qualities (endowments) or differences in the impact of these qualities (discrimination). The average differences in endowments explained almost two-third…
